A Short History of Barrettes
Barrettes first appeared in Europe during the late 19th century, when women began using decorative clips to secure their elaborate hairstyles. Over time, they became symbols of grace and femininity—often made of precious metals, tortoiseshell, or polished wood.
By the mid-20th century, barrettes were everywhere—from elegant French salons to schoolyards—thanks to the invention of the French barrette clasp, which made them both beautiful and functional. Today, they remain timeless accessories for every age and hair type.

Before delving into the styles, we must first understand the advantages of acetate material. Acetate fiber is a high-tech material derived from natural wood pulp, perfectly combining the benefits of both natural and synthetic materials:Luster and texture: Acetate has a warm, silky luster that looks very premium, completely free from the cheapness of ordinary plastic.Rich and lasting color: It is easy to dye and can present very rich and pure colors, from classic tortoiseshell to trendy candy colors, with high color saturation that does not fade easily.Good toughness and durability: Compared to ordinary plastic hair clips, acetate feels more substantial, is less likely to break, and has a longer service life.Skin-friendly comfort: It is friendly to those with sensitive skin, comfortable to wear, and unlikely to cause allergies.

Mr. Yin Zhenghui was quick in action but sparing in words. He always focused his main energy on the development direction of the factory. He knew that if a company was not on the path of growth, it would have no prospects. After several years of arduous efforts, he successfully developed acetate fiber sheets. However, due to the high cost of raw materials, the market share of the products in Yiwu was limited. Yin Zhenghui resolutely founded a jewelry factory, personally selected raw materials, supervised the production process, and designed product styles, gradually opening up both domestic and foreign markets.

The hair accessory market is steadily growing. As a representative of 'high-quality plastics,' the demand for products made from cellulose acetate has significantly increased in recent years. In the context of rising environmental awareness, cellulose acetate, being derived from natural wood pulp (a renewable resource), is considered 'more environmentally friendly' compared to conventional petroleum-based plastics.

Acetate combs, as the name suggests, are primarily made of acetate fiber. This is a polymer material derived from natural wood pulp and is known as the 'silk of the plastic world.' It is far superior to ordinary plastic combs, and its outstanding characteristics directly set a new standard for high-end combs.
